Courtney Brown, Ph.D., presenting a scientific explanation of why remote viewing works at the 2012 annual meeting of the Society for Scientific Exploration (SSE) in Boulder, Colorado. The science of remote viewing is based on the superposition principle of quantum mechanics, and this presentation explains how it all fits together.

Remote viewing is a natural consequence of superposition formation on the quantum level. That means that everything in the universe is based on a set of frequencies. There is no such thing as solid matter. Physicists have never found a solid, billiard ball type of solid thing. Everything just gets broken down into smaller things, and those smaller things are just frequencies of energy, waves. What happens is that a bunch of waves come together, and when they do, they form a superposition, which is a different type of wave thing.

Imagine a snake that has eaten a rat, and there is a bulge in the snake. Well, that bulge is like a superposition on the quantum level. That is a particle. So a particle is just a bunch of waves that are grouped together to form a superposition.

Well, you and I are vast and complex superposition ensembles. So it is rather easy to see how the quantum world builds up into physical things. But it is much harder to figure out why all of these physical things look so solid when in fact they are not.

Remote viewing works on the principle of observing superposition ensembles. Since superposition ensembles are simply collections of frequencies, they have their own harmonics. On the quantum level, nothing actually manifests unless it is observed, and this requires that the observer match the superposition’s frequency harmonics in order to see it. Otherwise the superposition is out of phase or invisible to the observer.

Guest writer, Essi Tolling, interviews an expert in Remote Viewing, Dr Courtney Brown, so that he can explain the latest advances in Remote Viewing practices and discuss why the breakthroughs in Remote Viewing are significant to our progress on the planet.

Dr Courtney Brown heads up The Farsight Institute, a nonprofit research and educational organization dedicated to understanding the remote-viewing phenomenon itself through the process of scientific experimentation.

Remote-viewing procedures were originally developed in laboratories funded by the United States military and intelligence services and used for espionage purposes.

The scientific understanding of the remote-viewing phenomenon has greatly advanced over the past 15 years, and much of the research done at The Farsight Institute blends the theory of quantum mechanics with interpretations of experimental remote-viewing data. This has lead to new insights into the nature of time and physical reality.

For example, new research indicates that alternate futures actually do exist, and that the past exists simultaneously with the present. Dr Brown will elaborate further on these concepts in this interview.

In 2008 The Farsight Institute conducted a study on 2012 to look at climate and planetary change between the years 2008 and 2013. The initial results appear dramatic on a global scale, and their research does indeed suggest that major global change is a possibility between now and 2013. An overview of this study can be found at the end of this article and the full report here.

Essi Tolling: How does Remote Viewing actually work?

Dr Courtney Brown: Remote viewing is a mental ability to accurately perceive a place or event at any point in time or space. Normally only highly trained individuals can do this consistently and well. Also, experiments using remote viewing need to be exceptionally well designed in order to work well.

Among those people who are aware of the remote-viewing phenomenon, its reality is not in doubt. This excludes a lot of mainstream scientists, but that is a generational lag problem. They will eventually be replaced by younger scientists who are not so resistant to these new ideas.

As for how remote viewing actually works, the more interesting question is how the physical world actually works. That is, we understand the remote-viewing phenomenon more than we understand the macro world of daily living.

Remote viewing is a natural consequence of superposition formation on the quantum level. That means that everything in the universe is based on a set of frequencies. There is no such thing as solid matter. Physicists have never found a solid, billiard ball type of solid thing. Everything just gets broken down into smaller things, and those smaller things are just frequencies of energy, waves. What happens is that a bunch of waves come together, and when they do, they form a superposition, which is a different type of wave thing.

Imagine a snake that has eaten a rat, and there is a bulge in the snake. Well, that bulge is like a superposition on the quantum level. That is a particle. So a particle is just a bunch of waves that are grouped together to form a superposition.

Well, you and I are vast and complex superposition ensembles. So it is rather easy to see how the quantum world builds up into physical things. But it is much harder to figure out why all of these physical things look so solid when in fact they are not.

Remote viewing works on the principle of observing superposition ensembles. Since superposition ensembles are simply collections of frequencies, they have their own harmonics. On the quantum level, nothing actually manifests unless it is observed, and this requires that the observer match the superposition’s frequency harmonics in order to see it. Otherwise the superposition is out of phase or invisible to the observer.

A short overview on Superposition from What the bleep

So remote viewing works by having the remote viewer “tune” his or her mind to a set of frequencies that constitute the superposition signature of the target, where the target is the thing that the remote viewer is supposed to perceive. This is done quite naturally, but to do it well requires extensive training and a proper experimental design.

Essi Tolling: The idea of multiple universes and multiple timelines sounds very far fetched. Does this have any basis in current scientific thinking?

Dr Courtney Brown: Yes. If everything in the universe is based on frequencies and not solid matter, then multiple universes could coexist and not bump into one another. Each one would be out of phase from the others.

This is the same principle behind why a radio station does not bump into another radio station as long as they use different frequencies. They are still transmitting through the same space and being picked up by the same radio, but they are separate.

A remote viewer is sort of like a radio, in that the viewer is tuning into a set of frequencies that define a target. Once the frequencies are the same — the target’s and those in the mind of the viewer — then the viewer’s perceiving mind is literally with the target, and observation becomes possible.

This is also why we can remote view the past and the future. We don’t normally see the past, since it is in the past, but we can remote view it. Thus, the past still exists or we could not perceive it when remote viewing. But we do not physically bump into the past, obviously. The past is out of phase from the present, as is the future.

This also explains why there can be multiple futures branching out of the “now,” and even multiple pasts. This is how you get multiple timelines, and we can have a past in which all the major wars of the 20th Century did not happen, and a past in which World War II ended with nuclear destruction.

All possible pasts and all possible futures can happen and not bump into one another. Obviously most mainstream scientists are yet to connect the dots between the quantum world and the macro world, and most scientists simply posit that there are two separate sets of rules for each, with a line of decoherence that separates the two worlds. But this is obviously unsupportable in the end. The entire macro world is based on the quantum world, so the idea that you can have two sets of rules for each that are separated by an intellectual line that is posited without explanation will have to fall.

Again, we will have to wait until most mainstream scientists are replaced by a younger generation of more flexible thinkers before this is taught in schools. Meanwhile, there is no reason for the truly intellectually curious not to put two and two together.

A short overview on Parallel Universes from BBC Horizon

Essi Tolling: The 2012 Climate Project produced very interesting results. The initial study allowed for two timelines but of course there are an infinite number. Thus what you are proposing is that something does happen in 2012, but how it will affect us seems to depend entirely on the collective mindset of the global populations. Do you feel there has been any change since 2008 when the study was conducted that is not necessarily in either of the timelines studied but which could now lead to a softer landing?

Dr Courtney Brown: Since there is the possibility of an infinite number of futures, each one of which is equally real, then the real question in terms of prediction focuses on the spatial width of future events.

Inconsequential future events, such as what color shirt one wears, have narrow spatial widths. Very few timelines are affected by those events, so predicting those events is very difficult.

But more significant events have larger spatial widths that affect a great many timelines. Predicting those events is easier. It is like aiming a gun at a distant leaf versus the side of a barn. The leaf is harder to hit than the barn. Current thinking is that whatever happens after 2012 is more like the barn than the leaf. It has a huge spatial width that affects a large swath of probable futures.

Nothing has changed between 2008 and now that causes me to think that we might miss the post-2012 barn. The major governments and the well-connected wealthy seem to be pulling out all the stops to prepare for the post-2012 world, so all that money and preparation seems to be telling.

Essi Tolling: In timeline 2 the criteria for change are that people come to accept: (1) the reality of the remote-viewing phenomenon, and (2) the existence of life not originating from Earth. Why do you think these beliefs would change the timeline?

Dr Courtney Brown: If mainstream science acknowledged that remote viewing is real and that extraterrestrial life is real, then there would be an immediate revolution in thought on this planet.

This revolution in thought would change how people viewed the post-2012 experience, and how they act cooperatively. I don’t think the causative events of the post-2012 world will change, but people’s response to those events would certainly change. This would have a huge impact on the evolution of our world, an impact that would be very much for the better.

Right now, the powers-that-be in the Western world are hunkering down, trying to ensure their own future while expecting the masses to suffer whatever happens. That is why they are pulling all of the money out of the Western economies. They know a collapse of the global economies is coming. Even mainstream economists can see this happening.

China and Russia are acting differently, of course. Both countries have historically placed a high value on protecting the bulk of their populations, not the wealth of the elite. They see their future national well being in terms of the survival of their populations.

For example, Russia is building 5,000 new nuclear bomb shelters in Moscow alone in a crash program that is to be finished this year. Now, they have no nuclear enemies, so you may wonder why they are doing this with a crash program. They have also built their subway system much deeper than required so that it also can serve as a sheltering system. China is similarly using a crash program in subway construction to serve as a protection network underneath all of its major cities. China’s program is also supposed to be mostly finished this year, and it involves up to 200 miles per year of subways under each of its major cities. This far outweighs any transportation needs that are required in the near future for China.

We cannot do that in the U.S. For example, New York City has spent huge sums and taken many years in order to try to build a one-mile extension of their subway system.

There are intractable land use and taxpayer issues in the U.S. The Western elites use this as the excuse to rationalize their policies, which is why they have built all of our sheltering systems in the inhospitable areas of the southwest and northwest as well as in the Svalbard Islands of Norway, places where the masses have no easy access.

The Svalbard Islands is also where the Global Seed Vault is located, which as you know is a nuclear bomb proof facility that is just now being fully stocked and sealed. No one is expecting a nuclear bomb attack, obviously. But if there was a widespread recognition of the reality of remote viewing and extraterrestrial life, then this house of cards would collapse early, and the elites fear they would prematurely lose control over the masses.

They are obviously expecting to lose control anyway, which explains their economic behaviors. They just don’t want to lose control too soon.

Essi Tolling: Do you have reasons to believe in the existence of life not originating from Earth? And if so could you elaborate on this?

Dr Courtney Brown: Yes. This is obvious to anyone with a flexible mind. I have written about this extensively in some of my books. But the information regarding this is so tightly controlled by the elite in government and business, it is almost useless for me to talk more about it now.

The primary mechanism of control is ridicule, and both the scientific and popular masses are kept under control through fear of being ridiculed. You have no idea how strong the pressure of fear can be until you know what is real and see how blind the masses keep themselves.

Don’t blame it on the elites. It is a two-way street. The masses agree to their own repression. But the masses are changing with time, and we are approaching a critical mass in which the old mechanisms of control will not work.

This is when humanity shifts from being a species with a negative orientation to one with a more positive orientation. That is the time period in which we live, the time of the shift. It is a very exciting time to be alive!

Essi Tolling: Is there any demonstration planned with a more immediate outcome which could help people to see more clearly that Remote Viewing works?

Dr Courtney Brown: Yes. I have an independent remote-viewing project that will be published in February and there is another project that will come out in the next few months also, and that is equally startling, but I am not yet at liberty to talk about that one. Trust me; you will hear about it!

Essi Tolling: Is there anything else you would like to add?

Dr Courtney Brown: Stay tuned! More is on the way!!

Essi Tolling: Thank you Courtney for taking the time to do this interview.

The 2008-2013 Climate Change Study

For the purposes of this study viewers were tasked to look at two timelines:

Timeline A: 1 June 2013, 12 noon target local time, following the timeline in which the leadership of the mainstream global scientific establishment continues to ignore or deny (1) the reality of the remote-viewing phenomenon, and (2) the existence of life not originating from Earth.

Timeline B: 1 June 2013, 12 noon target local time, following the timeline in which by the end of 2009 leaders of the mainstream global scientific establishment publicly recognize (1) the reality of the remote-viewing phenomenon, and (2) the existence of life not originating from Earth.

The viewers focused on nine geographical locations with a global spread. The locations were:

Initial findings suggest the following types of physical changes across many of the above geographical
locations by mid-2013:

• Impacts from what appear to be large meteors leading to tsunamis and possible volcanism
• Extensive and forceful flooding of coastal areas
• Excessive solar radiation
• Storms and other severe weather

In terms of the effects of these changes on humans, these data also suggest:

• Massive self-organized relocation from coastal areas (refugees)
• The breakdown of rescue or other notable governmental functioning
• The breakdown of the food supply system
• The breakdown of the vehicular transport system
• Extensive loss of buildings near coasts

However there was a difference in results between the two timelines. The data suggested that the impact of planetary change is less severe for Timeline B as compared with Timeline A. This suggests that having the mainstream scientific community openly acknowledge the reality of remote viewing and life (even microbial) not originating on Earth may help ameliorate the impact of severe planetary change, perhaps by giving people a greater chance to prepare for the changes.

We’ve decided to do a round up of what many of the visionaries of our time have to say on the subject.

The famous astrologer, Jonathan Cainer, says:

We have all heard about 2012. It brings the end of the Mayan calendar and, depending on which gloom-laden website you visit, it threatens us with all kinds of trouble. Just in case you are wondering how seriously to take all of this, let me set your mind at rest. Solar flares won’t render us extinct, strange brown dwarf stars won’t tilt the Earth on its orbit, the end is not nigh and even the dreaded recession will slowly loosen its grip as the year goes by.

Another viewpoint is held by Dr Courtney Brown of the Farsight Institute who believes that what may or may not happen in 2012 is dependent on where our consciousness is, as remote viewing experiments seem more and more to back the view that timelines and events can be affected positively or negatively by the global consciousness. We already reported on his views and that can be read again here.

So what is true? If the remote viewing stats are to be believed perhaps all of the above! Following the multiple universe theories, all possibilities happen on different timelines. The problem with the remote viewing findings is that the thinking is so new, that it is akin to the middle ages when people first began to suggest that the earth might not be flat and that it might actually be traveling around the sun. In those days people died for posing such thoughts. However, in today’s world of cynicism and media saturation new thinking can get lost in the crowd and unfortunately just be completely ignored.

We really can’t afford to throw out this theory without trying it out, as if this theory is right it might just change our future in a radical way. The intention experiments run by scientists such as Dean Radin and Lynne McTaggart, demonstrate that our thoughts really have an effect on events and that in turn global events can affect our thoughts. If we get our consciousness to the right place and begin to realise that what and how we think on a global level may affect the timelines positively or negatively then it might just encourage us to start focusing on and choosing positive scenarios.

To conclude Nassim Haremein has some very interesting theories about the path of the sun through the solar system and why 2012 is seen as significant. The link below is his summary of where believes his theories and research are leading. But to really understand the physics behind what he believe is happening on a galactic level from 2012 onwards it is worth watching his whole presentation which begins with this link. Crossing the Event Horizon

Maybe 2012 can be the year when we start to accept that we have the ability to change our reality for the better by changing our thoughts and attitudes and imagining a whole new way forward?

As there are no times of births available for each of the candidates in the Irish Presidential election, the astrologer here explains that he will use a noon chart as it may just give enough information to make a prediction.

As Michael D Higgins Solar Lunar Return is in exact conjunction with the sun, and the moon represents the self – i.e. Michael D in this case; it is a very good indication that the person who has this chart will be entering a public position. A look at the noon charts of the other candidates finds them without any strong indicators of success. The astrologer does emphasise however that, without an exact birth time chart, he cannot say 100% that none of the rival candidates possess planets in positions strong enough to beat Michael D. So to conclude, just going on the noon chart analysis, things are looking very good for Michael D Higgins!

For the full astrological details and reasoning behind this prediction read on….

There are no times only dates of birth for each of the candidates bidding for the Irish Presidential post. Astrologers are therefore restricted in what they can do. It is just possible that with big issues, such as high public office, using a noon chart (putting the sun as near as possible to the MC) and unfolding the chart through its progressions and returns for the day of the election will be informative.

All seven candidates show reasonably strong positive and negative testimonies for their election bid. And we would be burdened with the bothersome task of weighing these favourable and unfavourable testimonies, trying to asses overall which candidate was most favoured were it not for the heavens being most helpful with Michael D Higgins’ Solar Lunar Return chart (a chart set for the Moon’s exact place in the Solar Return that occurs immediately prior to the election date).

And keeping in mind the limitations of a noon chart this Solar Lunar Return chart is aptly descriptive, rendering the positive testimonies in the rivals’ charts to describing the limelight in which they find themselves by its eloquent testimony to Michael D. Higgins being elected next Irish president.

Michael D. Higgins’ Solar Lunar Return (Scorpio 2.58) is cazimi and since the Moon as lunar return is Michael D. himself (Lunar Return Moon is an intensification of the self) as well as taking its meaning from its source, the Solar Return where it is lord 1 (Michael D. himself), it is emphatically clear that the raising up (cazimi) belongs to Michael D. Note lord 7, Jupiter perfects by mutual application its tight opposition with the Sun.

This is a serious affliction, almost equivalent to combustion for his opponents. In itself it is a clear indication that the opponents are rendered powerless. Factor in Michael D. cazimi and it is without doubt that the Jupiter/Sun opposition represents the opponents losing the presidential bid to Michael D.

For added emphasis the pre-election eclipse Asc/Dsc axis (Leo/Aquarius 25.32) falls on the antiscion of Solar Lunar Return Jupiter/Sun/Moon opposition indicating the importance of the favouring of the native (cazimi Moon) and the rejection of the opponents (Jupiter afflicted by Sun) in the election battle.

Indeed, if we take eclipse Jupiter (Taurus 4.59) as lord of the eclipse then its conjunction with Solar Lunar Return Jupiter (Taurus 5.35) highlights the opponents’ loss all the more. Note also eclipse lord 10 Venus (Gemini 26.33) falls on the Solar Lunar Return Asc (Gemini 28.06) emphasising the importance of this election for Michael D.

And because it also falls on Michael D’s Part of Kings (Gemini 28.10) it is clear Michael D is highlighted because of his imminent rise to presidency.
Fixed star Polaris (the Pole star) is on the Solar Lunar Return Asc. (Gemini 28. 06). Because this navigational fixed star is positioned almost motionless in the sky, such that all the stars in the northern hemisphere appear to revolve around it, it is a most propitious indicator of Michael D.’s bid for the position of president which itself guides the ship of state.

Fixed star cluster Acumen (Sagittarius 28) is on the Dsc (Sagittarius 28.06). Acumen is situated in the Scorpion, just above the sting and because of the Scorpion is an agent of endings (stinging Orion to death) the indication here is that the opponents are finished off and therefore fail in their bid for presidency.

To beat Michael D. Higgins a rival would have to have a relevant planet (eg. lord 1) cazimi in dignity or at least peregrine; or failing that a relevant planet about to undertake a major improvement in dignity. Moreover, the rival candidate would also have to top Michael D’s opponents being harmed by the perfecting tight opposition of his lord 7 with the Sun, plus emphasised by more than one axis (Eclipse axis falls on cazimi Moon).

A trained glance at the charts of the other candidates simply to confirm the absence of such testimonies testifies to Michael D. Higgins becoming the new occupant of Aras an Uachtarain when the incumbent, Mary McAleese, steps down, 11 November 2011

“Remote viewing is a tool that we use to explore questions relating to consciousness and existence. Contributing to the science of consciousness through investigations into the remote-viewing phenomenon is the primary goal for our path of service.

The Western scientific paradigm postulates that consciousness is a phenomenon strictly related to brain physiology. This belief has dominated society, and it has inhibited scientific investigation into the nature of consciousness that can exist outside of or independently from the physical brain. The consequences have been devastating to life. Because material creation is the bottom line in this world view, the drive to acquire material comforts has overshadowed the more fundamental aspects of existence. We have stopped viewing ourselves as being connected to all humans, to all of life, and to all of creation. Resulting greed has brought us the possibility of widespread destruction of life.

We at The Farsight Institute seek to overturn this flawed paradigm before it is too late. Research at The Farsight Institute demonstrates that consciousness is more than a by-product of the physical human nervous system. Solid evidence demonstrates that consciousness fundamentally transcends the linear evolution of time and the relativistic limitations of space. Consciousness appears to be intrinsic to — and permeates all of — physical creation. In essence, our physical nervous system appears to act as a tuning device that connects us to an underlying field of nature through which knowledge of all things is possible.

At The Farsight Institute, we are dedicated to the practical and benevolent investigation and use of remote viewing, to solve scientific problems that are otherwise intractable, and to ask questions that are new and challenging. Doing this is integral to our educational goal of transforming how people think of themselves and their world, and it is consistent with our own personal pursuit of growth in consciousness.

Using the controls of modern science, we seek to help humanity discern that which is real in the context of a universe filled with mystery. We hope that this path of service will contribute to a positive and significant human destiny.

2012 Climate Change Remote-Viewing Study

The Farsight Institute are currently engaged in a fascinating study using remote viewing to study climate and planetary change between the years 2008 and 2013. The initial results appear dramatic on a global scale, and our research does indeed suggest that major global change is a possibility between now and 2013. However, web site visitors are reminded that this is research, not certitude. Remember what Albert Einstein once said, “If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn’t be called research, would it?” Web site visitors are encouraged to examine all of our results carefully, and learn with us as we complete this experiment in mid-2013. We will not fully understand these remote-viewing data until the experiment is completed at that time.

How we obtain these results is a bit complicated, but it is worth the effort to understand our methods. The actual types of global change is discussed in the second part of the video presentation below, but the first part of this presentation is absolutely essential to understand how these results were obtained. Web site visitors should watch both parts of the video presentation. This presentation was given during the 29th Annual Meeting of the Society for Scientific Exploration in Boulder, Colorado in June 2010.

This is the most carefully collected set of professional-grade remote-viewing data involving this time span that currently exists. This experiment is potentially one of the most significant experiments ever attempted using remote viewing as a data-collection platform.”
